Bigger throttle body

Honda fit should have a 50mm electronic throttle body (with drive by wire system).
Usually a 1.5 engine can use a 60/62 mm throttle body...
Is there anyone who already use a bigger throttle body or knows where to buy it?

Another remark:

Spoon throttle body (non electronic), instead, has a diameter of 58mm.
What makes me think is:
- Honda Jazz/Fit European: plastic intake manifold + 56mm (original) throttle body
- Honda Fit American: aluminium intake manifold + 50mm (drive by wire) throttle body

Don't you think there's something we could upgrade?!!

You can, if you don't have a drive by wire throttle control, of course...

We can still take our manifolds off, port and polish them! And port match the throttle body! (a bit)

Yes, but boring our throttle body you'll gain no more than 3 mm for $100 (and the throttle body becomes very thin...). I don't know if it's worth boring it or buying a bigger one.
